A system, apparatus, and method are provided for connecting, configuring and testing wireless devices and applications. For example, one embodiment of wireless device for operation in a wireless network comprises a processor, a wireless module including a radio receiver and transmitter unit coupled to the processor, a graphical user interface (GUI) coupled to the processor, and a Connection Manager Module (CMM) including an Application Programming Interface (API) module, a Rules Engine Module, and a Rules Set Module, wherein the CMM manages a connection to a wireless network.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A mobile wireless device operating in a wireless network comprising: a processor; a wireless modem comprising a radio receiver and a transmitter unit coupled to the processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprises instructions for a Connection Manager Module (CMM) including an Application Programming Interface (API) module, a Rules Engine Module (REM), and a Rules Set Module (RSM) comprising a first rule set, the first rule set comprises logic to instruct the CMM to control the wireless modem, wherein the CMM comprises software independent of operating system software and mobile wireless device application software, and the CMM manages a connection to the wireless network, the memory is configured to provide the processor with instructions which when executed cause the processor to identify aggressive behavior data contained in at least one data log transmit the aggressive behavior data to a control center server; receive a second rule set to eliminate aggressive behavior from the control center server to store in the RSM; instruct the REM to utilize the second rule set in the RSM to allow the CMM to control the wireless modem to eliminate the aggressive behavior, wherein the CMM comprises attention (AT) commands to control the wireless modem and wherein the operating system software and the mobile wireless device application software do not issue AT commands to control the wireless modem; and receive a disconnect instruction from the control center server if the aggressive behavior persists.
2. The mobile wireless device of claim 1 , wherein the RSM comprises a timer that is started by an event and expires after a time out value and wherein a next time out value T2=C+n*T1 where C is a constant, n is a multiplier, and T1 is a current time out value.
